Antimicrobial applications of treatments using light pulses emitted from light emitting diodes (LED)
DownloadSpring 2022
Low water activity (aw) foods have been associated with several foodborne outbreaks and recalls. Eradication of foodborne microorganisms like Salmonella and Escherichia coli from low aw foods is challenging, as they are resistant to conventional decontamination practices. High intensity light...

Garmroodi, Mohammad Reza Daneshvar, Karimfazli, Ida
We study the evolution of chaotic mixing in an initially stratified circular vessel. The bottom and top halves of the vessel are filled with viscoplastic and Newtonian fluids. A circular stirrer in the vessel promotes the mixing. We considered three different viscosity ratios to understand the...

Microbial biodeterioration of human skeletal material from Tell Leilan, Syria (2900 – 1900 BCE)
DownloadSpring 2011
Human bone is considered one of the most direct and insightful sources of information on peoples of the past. As a result, curation protocols have been developed to ensure that the integrity of human skeletal collections is maintained. Although collections are generally considered safe when these...

Experimental and theoretical investigation of mass transport in porous media of a PEM fuel cell
DownloadFall 2011
Porous media is an integral part of polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEMFC) electrodes. In this study, an experimental setup is presented to investigate convective and diffusive mass transport in porous media of fuel cell electrodes. A new theoretical model was developed in order to correct for...

Bidulock, Allison Christel Elizabeth
This thesis addresses the need for inexpensive microfluidic platforms by contributing to the collaborative development of a modularised, integrated system capable of molecular diagnostics using bead-based sample preparation, polymerase chain reaction and capillary electrophoresis analysis...

Fall 2011
Microelectrodes can be used for profiling environmental biofilms. Currently there is no sulfate microelectrode available for studying sulfate reduction in biofilms. In this study, a sulfate microelectrode was fabricated and tested in measurement of environmental biofilms for the first time. The...

Functionalized Bead Based Microchip for Immunoassay and Virus Immuno-affinity Chromatography
DownloadFall 2014
We demonstrate the functionalization of a highly ordered porous molecular sieving matrix created by colloidal self-assembly (CSA) of 2 micrometer diameter silica particles in microfluidic chips, for highly efficient immuno-capture of viruses. By tuning the particle size, with appropriate surface...

Towards minimizing the cost of Micro Total Analysis Systems(µTAS) or Lab on a chip (LoC) systems, it is important to minimize manufacturing and assembly cost and time, and lower material costs. While the choice of material does govern material costs and the manufacturing process required and...

Design and Microfabrication of Robust and Highly Integrated Thermal Lab-On-A-Chip Polymeric Systems for Genetic Diagnosis
DownloadSpring 2014
The lab-on-chip (LOC) technology could transform and greatly enhance the health care system by making genetic diagnosis tests fast, accurate and readily accessible. However, most LOC systems are not prepared to resist variations of their external environment, as they depend upon many...
